An ultrasound machine makes use of high frequency sound waves to examine various organs in the body. The display monitor is the most identifiable part of ultrasound machine. It shows the visual information or images of the intended organs and tissues. Transducer Probe on the other hand acts as the transmitter and receiver of sound waves. The collected information is processed by Central Processing Unit (CPU) using dedicated software that computes the sound waves. Like typical computer, ultrasound machines have a keyboard that used to key in information or particular findings of patient during the procedure. The information generated can be stored on internal hard drive or on CD or DVD. And of course the printer can print images for archiving purpose or even taken home by the patient. There may be some special and extra parts depending on the model of the ultrasound machines.
